Sports Betting Rules are a set of rules that have been created to remind the sports bettor of certain rules that they should always keep in mind. These rules apply to everyone regardless of the experience they have in the realm of betting on sports. Some of the rules are simple and some are complex but they all have the same end result—making money betting sports.

•Rule #21 - Handicapping The Superbowl - The Superbowl is the premier event of the year and football fans and gamblers always gather to make wager on the big game. Since it is one of the most bet on sporting events in the world it only makes sense that it is handicapped differently than a regular season game.

•Rule #16 - Ranked vs. Unranked Basketball Favorites - College basketball is here and when betting college hoops over the years I have noticed several line spots over the years. First let me explain what a line spot is. A line spot is a line that looks to be too good to be true. Other handicappers call this a trap, or a stinky line, or even too good to be true line. I call it a line spot and will refer to it as this throughout the article.

•Rule #15 - Betting NCAA Championship Games - If you love college football this is a great time of year. The season is winding down and it always goes by so quickly. What should be a sad time is often replaced with joy because the best teams in the country battle in the Championships. Before the bowl games and before the BCS issues there is no debate when a team plays for a championship. It could be the SEC or the ACC or even smaller conferences the championship games always make for some great entertainment and betting opportunities.

• Rule #14 - Picking A Sportsbook - My articles usually try to cover techniques to try and use when betting on a football game or any sporting event, but there is something even more important that needs to be covered first.
